Q: 2. What did Neil Postman mean when he said: “Children go to school as questions marks and leave school as periods”? Does this have something to do with a teacher’s questioning and reacting techniques?

A: Children enter school as question marks and leave as periods.) In other cases they do this because they do not know how to ask certain kinds of questions. [ In any event, a simple translation of their declarative utterances will sometimes produce a great variety of deeply felt questions.
